2013 is off to a fast and furious start of workshops and presentations, but TPS EIU would have it no other way!
The application deadline for the 2013 Summer Teacher Institutes at the Library of Congress is Monday, February 4! If you are planning a trip to DC or are looking for something new for the coming summer, I encourage you to check these out! Travel to DC can be affordable if you plan early and you will have the opportunity to work with amazing people at the Library of Congress and meet peers from across the country. Learn more at http://www.loc.gov/teachers/professionaldevelopment/teacherinstitute/.
On Thursday, February 7, Cindy is presenting Eyewitness to the Struggle for Change: Teaching With Primary Sources at the Illinois Holocaust Museum & Education Center in conjunction with the exhibit Courage: The Vision to End Segregation, the Guts to Fight For It. We are fortunate to have several respected museums and facilities in Illinois. While we may not be able to take our students to these sites, many offer opportunities for teachers to learn about their sites and resources that can be brought to the classroom electronically.
In coming weeks we will announce Summer 2013 plans for TPS EIU.
